Friends and Family Test
The Friends and Family Test uses a single question, aimed to determine if the respondent will recommend the service to others - it is considered a better measure than whether someone is 'satisfied' with a service. It is intended to feed into other feedback schemes.
Autism Service extended support offer
BCHC is piloting an extended support offer for children, families, and carers waiting for an autism assessment. The pilot aims to provide signposting, workshops, and face-to-face support while families wait.

Feedback on our Autism website pages

Your support and input has been used to shape the ongoing website review, co-production of the new model, and identifying any resource gaps. We want to learn from feedback and adjust our pathways accordingly. To ensure we can do this we will be working with team of Experts by Experience though a Lived Experience panel. If you are interested and would like to be part of the panel, please contact bchc.NDPCommunications@nhs.net.
